Research direction

Start by locating the repository interface and message model described in the issue, then trace how message fields are currently fetched and saved. Done means the interface supports omitting flags, content, and parts, returned objects are read-only, and callers can identify partial models; no specific files or tests are named.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In some cases, it is not necessary to fetch some message fields:

  • Flags
  • Content data (envelope, etc)
  • Parts data (may be quite big).

Repository interface should support such partial fetching. Returned objects should be read-only and cannot be saved.
It should be possible to tell that the model object is "partial".
